Q: is the Honda HHT35SUKAT 4 cycle engine as powerful as a comparable 2 cycle.. I just purchased a troy bilt 4 cycle and it is obviously not as strong as the 2 cycle husquvarna I had before. it chokes down in grass more than 3 inches tall . not satisfied at at all Is the 4 cycle as strong as a 2 cycleby Mike from Alabama on September 08, 2013

A: Mike,

Most likely you will find that 2 cycle engines of the same make, model and size will be more comparable in power.

You are comparing 2 different machine brands and I am not really sure if the engine sizes match up, so it would be very difficult to say.by Marissa, Product Expert

The HHT35SUKAT from Honda is about as high of quality as you can get when it comes to a brush cutter or trimmers. Making it great for anyone looking to cut some serious brush on their property.

Equipped with a Honda GX35 4-cycle engine, the HHT35SUKAT provides the durability and longevity expect from any Honda product as well as plenty of power to get through the toughest of brush.

The HHT35SUKAT from Honda is about as high of quality as you can get when it comes to a brush cutter or trimmers. Making it great for anyone looking to cut some serious brush on their property.

Equipped with a Honda GX35 4-cycle engine, the HHT35SUKAT provides the durability and longevity expect from any Honda product as well as plenty of power to get through the toughest of brush. Adding on to Honda's amazing reputation of easy to start engines, this unit is no exception. While the engine provides supreme torque and terrific fuel efficiency, it is a extremely easy to start. Something which cannot always be said about comparable 2-cycle brushcutters.

A heavy duty gear box and helical cut gears, the HHT35SUKAT provides long component life as well as a smooth operation. The superior shock absorbing characteristics which come with this machine are due in part to the flex shaft design making this unit a true joy to work with.

The HHT35SUKAT is going to come equipped with a 17-inch cutting swath manual feed trimmer head standard as well as a 10-inch cutting blade. Other blades and heads can be switched out on this as well making it versatile in every way depending on what type of demands your property may have.

Honda does not hold back on the safety either when it comes to this model. Equipped with bicycle type handle bars, the HHT35SUKAT provides ergonomically and easy to use controls. Along with this is an included double strap shoulder harness to help cut back on the fatigue you may encounter when using for long periods of time.

What else can you say, it is a Honda and the HHT35SUKAT provides quality, durability and safety to say the least.

Powerful And Easy To Use

Pulled twice on cord after assembly out of box and machine started right away.
The first 30mns the engine was not running well maybe due to carburetor or engine assembly being new.
Since then and after using it for 15+ hours on heavy duty brush cutting I am delighted by my purchase.
Only draw back is for light duty grass cutting, the head that was delivered is not good quality so I will purchase auto adjustable one.
Other than that .. great investment.

Stopped Working

I purchased this in the spring from here and it worked OK out of the box but wouldn't hold full power, I figured that it just needed a little breaking in but now a few months later it almost instantly dies once I put any power to it.

I paid for the Honda name because I thought it would be reliable...but I was wrong...very disappointed and now I have to go though all the hassle of find a service center who are going to be unhappy as I purchased it online and not with them....other than the motor not working I like it.

Charlie,

I sincerely apologize for the inconvenience this has caused. A service center will provide the most thorough diagnosis of the unit to resolve the issue.

As we are an authorized dealer of the Honda products, you should not experience an issue with getting this unit serviced. If you do run into an issue in locating a facility willing to work on your unit, please don't hesitate to reach out to us. Thank you and have a great day.

Hello from Honda, Charlie...sorry to read of the trouble you are experiencing with your Honda trimmer. There are a number of Honda dealers in your area that can provide expert troubleshooting and discover the true cause of the problem. Your trimmer has a 24-month warranty, so if there's a factory defect, repair costs are covered. Any of these dealers would welcome the chance to provide you a positive service experience:

Runs great and seems to have the power to do a lot of trimming. The trim line action is not what I expected. The trim line has to be cut into short lengths and manually inserted into the head.

Because of the machine's length one needs to unhook from the harness and place the unit on the ground or have a second person insert the line. Have not used the saw blade attachment yet. Probably would not have bought the machine if I had known about the line issue.

Cons:Manually Inserting Line Not Real Handy

"I had a very good experience. My Honda trimmer came very quickly. Website is easy to navigate and checkout was quick."

Used the brush cutter for first time today. Worked fantastically and breezed through some pretty thick brush. Made what was a tough long job into an easy short job. Love the cutter. Recommend it highly.

"Great company. Easy ordering, very fast delivery, will use them in the future for any power equipment needs. Loved the experience."

Starts easily and really does the job. Relatively quiet and easy to handle. A little heavy but I knew this going in. It's worth it though when trying to cut thick weeds and brush. Bottom line is that I would buy this item again.

This is my second Honda trimmer. I had the first one for 10 years before it was stolen.. Just regular maintenance and a few minor repairs. I have 23 acres and a 3.5 acre lake. Handle bars make all the difference in the world.

I can weed and brush cut for hours without back strain. No gas and oil to mix. I love this trimmer its a beast. I use 105 Oregon with it. I use an after market quick load head. The supplied brush blade cut through the toughest stuff like butter.

"great vendor..super fast free shipping with no sales tax!!!
in the past when had to contact cs they were great gave me the correct answer11
would highly recommend to use this vendor"

I mainly purchased this thing for its ability to use a sawblade. Living in Hill Country, Texas, we have a problem with Cedar trees taking over our property. I can cut down saplings up to a couple inches thick with no problems as all. The machine is heavier than I expected but with the harness adjusted correctly I had no problem with is all day.

Starting is super easy and it is very low on noise and vibration. Much more so than the Echo GT225 I also own. No tingle in my fingertips even after all day use. The handlebar eliminates my tennis elbow issue too. I will be upgrading the string attachment as I hate replacing those small cut strips. The is a bump feed in this things future. Overall very nice machine that I expect will save loads of time.
